My office manager signed a contrat with WM 20 years ago. It started at $48.00 a month to empty a 2 yard dumpster one a month. I just signed the checks, never saw the invoice. Now I am paying the bills and noticed that the bill went up every single month. Gas prices going down and the gas surcharge went up. The last bill was just over $200.00/ month. I got a quote from Johns and the going rate was $38.00/month vs WM at over $200/month!!!
I called them and said that I wanted to fire them. They said that I have a 20 year old contract that self renews unless I send a certified letter within 60+ days but no more than 6 months from the next expirations date. I had to get ripped off of $160.00 per month for about 6 months until the contract was gone.
One time we overfilled the dumpster and they charges me over $300,00 that month. They added a $86.00 overfill fee. The new guy Johns, only charges $38.00 per month. Can you call that anything but a SCAM and a RIPOFF?
